Data sets:

Tool:

E2D3 is an Office / Excel app which transforms your data into visually appealing format. Some E2D3 graphic templates also let you see the data from different perspectives, and it’s really cool. I used a template “dcjs-example”.

E2D3 is an open source software that run on Excel. It lets you handle, show, and present data in the beautiful, interactive format. It’s easy to install, use and free. You can find E2D3 from Excel 2013 and later, or Microsoft Office app online store. (Yes, they do have Office app store!)

My observation

You can play with the data in many different ways. For example, let’s see the lowest temperatures in August. When filtered at above 25 degrees, you will see a lot of greens, meaning recent years.

Conclusion

When you actually play with data sets, there are many new discoveries.
E2D3 lets you show various data in Excel in visually appealing ways. You can input other cities’ climate data and compare with Tokyo’s.

Annoucements

Userbase, Inc. has a lot of data, ranging from corporation, industry, stastical, news articles and comments, etc. We are actively seeking engineers who want to develop tools to utilize those valuable data.

In addition, E2D3, an open source software project, is looking for contributors / collaborators who can add awesome visualization templates, as well as backend engineers and designers. It’s a fun project to work on!
